The thing about accessorising, is that you will when you see your accessories, and you won't when you don't see your accessories. At least that's the case for me. I tend to forget them if I store them in a jewellery box. But, with the new way of organising my jewellery, I step out of home every time feeling happy that I've remembered to accessorise.

BRACELETS, BANGLES & DANGLING EARRINGS

I feel that the best way to store my DIY bracelets and bangles is in a nice bowl. Nick and I happened to see this simple, yet elegant aluminum bowl while we were at Ikea. I can't remember exactly how much it costs, but I'm sure it's no more than SGD4.00 each. I also like to hook some of my dangling earrings on it.

EAR STUDS & RINGS

We saw this lovely little birdy dish at Takashimaya, it's meant for storing ear studs and rings. It's very well made and is pretty heavy, so it's less likely to be knocked off the dresser. It'll be a nightmare searching for those little studs! The little clear glass bowl is from Ikea. I prefer the birdy dish to the small bowl because of the weight. But I like the look of the glass bowl.

Q-TIPS & DECOR IDEA
I just love the idea of storing Q-tips in a glass jar rather than in their original zip-lock bag. It's just more accessible this way, and visually appealing.
The glass jar can be used to store hair ties, bobby pins, etc. I'm really pleased with the look of the sand and seashells - that we collected on our beach holiday - in the glass jar!

MAKEUP BRUSHES

I think Sigma did a good job in creating this makeup brush holder. Although it is kind of bulky for travelling, it is very sturdy, your brushes are less likely to get damaged while your luggage is being thrown around. With my brushes stored in it, packing for a holiday has never been easier, it's just a matter of "grab and go".
It's a little tall for travel size brushes, so I prefer to store my short handle/ travel size brushes in a glass.

So how do you like to store your jewellery and stuff that you use daily? I'll love to hear your ideas!
Love,Karen
